Graderok

Designed to calculate earthwork quantities for railway alignments laid out on topographic mapping for all levels of studies - pre-feasibility through preliminary engineering - but not for final design. It is especially useful on projects where digital mapping is not available, yet there is a requirement to develop a profile for the alignment. In addition to assisting in the calculation of the earthwork quantities, the spreadsheets are of assistance in designing a low-cost profile. Through spreadsheet graphic capabilities, the designer can view the mass-haul diagram resulting from a profile and make revisions to better balance the cut and fill quantities.
